Project description:Primary tumor recurrence occurs commonly after surgical resection of lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The aim of this study was to identify genes involved in recurrence in lung squamous cell carcinoma patients. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) was performed on DNA extracted from tumour tissue from 62 patients with primary lung squamous cell carcinomas. aCGH data was analysed to identify genes affected by copy number alterations that may be involved in SCC recurrence. Candidate genes were then selected for technical validation based on differential copy number between recurrence and non-recurrence SCC tumour samples. Genes technically validated advanced to tests of biological replication by qPCR using an independent test set of 72 primary lung SCC tumour samples. 18q22.3 loss was identified by aCGH as significantly associated with recurrence (p=0.038). Although aCGH copy number loss associated with recurrence was found for seven genes within 18q22.3, only SOCS6 copy number loss was both technically replicated by qPCR and biologically validated in the test set.

Project description:To prospectively identify new oncogenes implicated in lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma pathogenesis, we investigated chromosome 3 aberrations in advanced tumours using arrayCGH. Chromosome 3 aberrations are indeed among the most frequent alterations in lung SCC and correlate with SCC patient's poor prognosis. We have precisely mapped regions of recurrent losses at 3p and gains at 3q25-qter in a series of lung SCC (GSE14859) amd moreover uncover 3q26.3-q27 high level amplifications in 20% of tumours. These amplicons were precisely mapped in these tumors using arraCGH with a 3q26.3 dedicated tiling array. Keywords : ArrayCGH, lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma, 3q26.3, SOX2 Keywords: ArrayCGH

Project description:CSMD1 gene, mapping to human chromosomal region 8p23, encodes a transmembrane protein with an extracellular region containing 14 CUB and 28 sushi domains, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain with a putative tyrosine phosphorylation site.The loss of CSMD1 has been found to be associated with enhanced cell proliferation, migration and poor prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCCs), lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCCs), melanoma, and breast cancer, suggesting its role as a tumor suppresser.However, its role in hypertrophic scar has not been uncovered. So we decided using fibroblasts to see its transcriptomes changing after CSMD1 knockdown.
Project description:Background: Clinical characteristics of ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCC) include 1) higher incidence among Japanese, 2) association with endometriosis, 3) poor prognosis in advanced stage, 4) higher incidence of thrombosis as complication. We applied high resolution comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) array to screen somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) associated with these clinical characteristics. Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study. DNA obtained from tumors was assayed by array comparative genomic hybridization using Agilent Whole Human Genome 244K.
